There are a few simple key considerations to consider when selecting the best belt for your stamping application:
- What is the smallest pulley diameter?
- Does the belt back-bend?
- Would you like a smooth cover or do you need a slight texture to maintain orientation of your parts?
One huge advantage for urethane belts is that they are simple to fabricate.
Adding v-guides, capped edges, and even cleats can be easily done due to the thermoplastic nature of most of these materials. Urethane belts have heavy-duty carcasses which provide low stretch, extra thickness for durability, and are highly resistant to most oils and chemicals found throughout today’s modern stamping plants.
